A: AnswerHello Charcoal! The new Echo Show 8 has some great upgraded features. The device now has a 13 MP camera that is built to keep you in frame! The camera has auto-framing that can zoom and tilt to always keep you in frame and centered for video calls. You can also look in when you're away with the built-in camera.

- A: AnswerHello Daryl, the Echo Show 8 does require constant power to operate. There is no battery available for this device. Have a great day!
Answered by Amazon Devices Customer Support
- A: AnswerHi there! The Echo Show 8 3rd Generation should work just fine in Brazil, though you may need a different power adapter than the one that is included with the US version of the device. You'll still be limited to the normal services and features of an Alexa enabled device operating in Brazil though. Alexa definitely speaks Portuguese though, so no worries there. I hope that helps, have a great rest of your day!

- A: AnswerHi FloridaBob, Thanks for reaching out. I apologize for the inconvenience you're experiencing with your new 8" Echo Show. Time discrepancies can be frustrating, Here are a few things to try. Double-check the time zone: Even though you've set it to EST NY, try resetting it: Say "Alexa, open settings" Go to "Device Options" > "Date & Time" Ensure "Automatic Time Zone" is enabled If it is, try turning it off and manually selecting "Eastern Time (US & Canada)" Sync the time: Say "Alexa, sync my device" This should force the device to update its time from Amazon's servers Restart your Echo Show: Unplug the device from power for about 30 seconds, then plug it back in Check your Amazon account settings: Go to the Alexa app on your smartphone Tap on "Devices" > "Echo & Alexa" > select your new Echo Show Check the device settings to ensure the correct time zone is set Update your Echo Show: Say "Alexa, check for software updates" If an update is available, install it I hope these steps get help. Have a great day!

Alexa review
I recently upgraded to the latest Amazon Alexa, and I must say, it's been a game-changer in my daily routine! From the moment I plugged it in, I was impressed by its sleek design and intuitive interface. The setup process was a breeze, allowing me to connect it to my Wi-Fi and customize my preferences in no time. The voice recognition is simply outstanding. Whether I’m in the kitchen cooking or relaxing in the living room, Alexa hears me clearly and responds almost instantly. I love how I can ask for the weather, set reminders, or even control my smart home devices with just my voice. The integration with other smart devices has made managing my home so much easier and more efficient. One of my favorite features is the ability to create routines. I’ve set it up so that when I say “Good morning,” Alexa turns on the lights, starts my coffee maker, and gives me a rundown of the day’s news. It’s like having a personal assistant who’s always on call! The music quality is impressive as well. Whether I’m listening to my favorite playlists or discovering new artists, the sound is rich and clear. Plus, the ability to access various streaming services makes it easy to enjoy music whenever I want. Overall, the Amazon Alexa has exceeded my expectations. It’s not just a gadget; it’s a valuable addition to my home that enhances my lifestyle. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to simplify their life and embrace the convenience of voice-activated technology.

The screen is vibrant, and the size is perfect for casual browsing, video chatting, or watching tutorials while cooking. The sound quality is surprisingly robust for its size. The dual speakers deliver clear audio with decent bass, making it suitable for music, podcasts. Pros: • Responsive Alexa integration • Privacy features like camera shutter and mic off button Cons: • The screen resolution, while good, isn’t as sharp as higher-end tablets
